The End of the Year Outlook

So, I guess it wasn't until this evening, as I was sitting in my dorm room after my summer class, that I really started to realize that the semester was over.  In many ways, I'm happy it is over.  I'm tired of classes and I'm tired of work.  I need a break.  But there is no denying that I had some very good times as well.  While some of them didn't end the way I wanted them to, it's not as though I'd rather they hadn't happened at all.  So, overall I guess I'm sad and relieved that the year was over.  It's time for summer sunshine and more time to do many of the things that I had been putting off all winter because of time constraints.

Regardless, it will be sad packing up the rest of my stuff tomorrow and shutting the book on another memory-filled year.  But, life goes on and so will I with it.  I've already got plans for the summer, for once, and I'm very happy with them so far.

Most years I don't like moving out, mostly because it means that I will need to move back in with my parents too.  This year is no different, except that I'm not going to dwell on it.  It is a negative, but so are many things in life.  We cannot let them rule us.  We need to look to the positives and not mope over the negatives.  So, I've had a great time overall this year and I will have a great time this summer.  

How do I know it?  

Outlook.
